Time spent watching films, even crappy ones, is time well-spent.

The Drop Box (2015)

The Korean couple at the center of this documentary are truly inspirational: they saw an epidemic of abandoned infants dying on the streets and decided to do something about it. These people are the real deal: not only are they a waypoint for these children, but they often become the adoptive parents as well.

I was less enamored of the preachy vibe of the film and the Christian Rock musical montages. Worth watching, but only for the information and inspiration -- not for the craftsmanship of the film itself.
